Jed Wyatt is finally speaking up after his alleged girlfriend revealed that they were still in a relationship and claimed he went on 'The Bachelorette' just to enhance his career. 

'The Bachelorette' season 15 front-runner who confessed his love to Hannah Brown on Monday's episode of 'The Bachelorette' took to Instagram a few hours before the episode aired asking for more positivity and kindness as the cheating claims have taken a toll on his mental health, his family's and Brown's as well. 

Though Wyatt uploaded a post on Instagram requesting viewers to stop sending threatening notes and calls to his house, and to stop verbally attacking his family in public, fans assert that he brought this upon himself by entering the show despite having a girlfriend back home. 

Taking to Instagram on Monday, Wyatt uploaded a picture of him along with his family captioning it, "Hi ya'll. Several of you have reached out with messages and questions. Please know I'm not able to answer right now, but as soon as I'm able to, I will. Until then, I ask that you please understand how much the actions being taken towards myself, my family, the men on the show, and above all, Hannah, are affecting all of our mental and physical health."

Continuing he added, "It goes beyond what is said online. Threatening letters and phone calls have been sent to our homes. My parents and sister are being verbally attacked in public." 

"I beg you to remember what seems like a harmless action is damaging to real people. I want to thank all of you who have reached out or reserved judgment until I am able to speak openly and I can only ask for your patience and kindness until then."

His plea for positivity and kindness comes after his alleged girlfriend Hayley Stevens publicly accused him of cheating. She also revealed that they did not break up and he entered just to enhance his music career. 

While some fans felt sad for his post and commented saying that he should not be targeted so much, most fans assert that he brought this upon himself for going on the show despite having a girlfriend back home.  "You can twist the truth all you want when you do speak on it, but you’re the one that has hurt Hannah. Let’s not forget that — above all else," replied a fan. 

Another fan said, "Did you think about your cheating damaging real people? or does this only apply now because the roles are reversed." 

"I am sorry your family has been affected. You should have given more thought to all of your actions. It has affected millions of viewers as well in addition to wasting months of Hannah's time and ours!."

Fans also blamed Wyatt claiming he is the reason Brown's mental health was affected. "Sorry but you bought this on yourself and your family. You shouldn't have been so deceiving and the reason Hannah's mental health was affected was YOU. So sorry bro but you are the creator of the evil that you found." 

"I beg YOU to also remember the actions you did to Hannah who is also a real person that you did damages to," replied another fan. 

According to spoilers by Reality Steve, Brown got engaged to Wyatt at the end of the show, but he also disclosed last week that Brown had broken off the engagement with him. 

'The Bachelorette' season 15 airs every Monday night on ABC. Check your local listings for more information.
